Whats happens if you start your nasal spray monday and was meant to have your period on friday but its 4days late they said if it didnt come by tomorrow to fone them does it mean id have to come off the spray or what happens did this happen anyone? The first time i was later was last month cos i had reflexology and it left me two days late.

Aslong as it comes before you start the Injections I don't think they worry to much about it mines was late aswell it came the day before I had to phone and alot of people on here were late with theirs aswell, try not to worry about it to much and it should come x

My was late I call then. Get appointment to come for blood test after couple days. But until that I get my period and I just call to cancel that and everything go by plan

Fifs I had only 2 embryos and got pregnant so it really does only take one - the golden egg ! Pup cramps are actually a good sign well they were for me anyway best of luck to all of you hope to see lots more bfps x

9 fertilised so thankful for that. Husband sperm quality isn' great so had been worried if any would!very stiff lower back also today must be morphine wearing off!
Good luck to all phoning and testing over the weekend

Everyone seems to be moving in the right direction, good luck in your next steps!
I have my 1st scan tomorrow to see how follicles are progressing and I’m almost sick with worry. Last ivf attempt they only got 1 egg out so I’m terrified I’m not responding again. Did anyone ‘feel’ anything prior to this first scan? I’m finding it difficult to remember!!

I’m feeling like just before my period too! I’m trying not to read into it too much. Think being at work has helped me think about something else while I’m there. My biggest issue is the nasty progesterone pessaries! I’m finding as the days go on (sorry to be graphic) I’m feeling then leaking more down below. I woke up a few times in the night thinking I’d started bleeding and had to get under the duvet with my phone torch to check!! Hopefully we’ll be able to laugh at all this one day!! Xx

Pup I had a wee chuckle there at you under the covers with your torch. I know exactly what you mean, I feel the same. My sister in law has been through the process and said that progrestone mimics period and pregnancy symptoms so I'm hoping that explains our cramps. I'm off to bed to read the Secret and be positive! Hope we feel better tomorrow xx

I'm not sure Pup. I have to go into my clinic for a blood test and they will call me later on that day with it. Maybe a blood test picks it up earlier? I was surprised that it's Wednesday too. How you feeling today? xx

Ah mine is a urine test on Wednesday. I had a little peak, it’s different to what I’ve seen before. You have to put a few drops on a dish thing. Feeling ok but go through anxious phases where I’m convinced it’ll be negative.

Good news fifs. How many did you have transferred. Me and Tansy both had day 5 transfers xx

Thanks guys. Got the two in, as these one wasn't as good quality and wouldn't have made it through freezing. They don't think it will survive in any event but better in than out!
Tbh I had myself prepared for news that neither were suitable so it's all down to a waiting game now.

Fifs don't loose hope I only had 2 on day 3 and to be honest I cried at the tranfer and asked them if there was even any hope for me and am over 7 weeks now and seen my healthy baby with strong beating heart on Wednesday, it's up to the embryo weather it wants to develop in the boy or not regardless of the day it's tranfefed, everyone has the same chances xx

I had scan and they saw a decent amount of follicles however nurse said some were too big for this stage of stims and so will probably not contain viable eggs at EC. Bit disappointed with that but trying to remain positive.

Have been looking through my protocol, those at GCRM have you used ovitrelle for trigger? I also seem to be reading that I will have to use ovitrelle instead of progesterone pressaries if I’m lucky to have an ET?!?!! Has anyone here NOT used the pessaries but only had 1 injection post retrieval? I’m a bit confused! I suppose what that might also mean is that I can’t POAS to see if I’m pregnant before official test date?

Sorry ladies, I’m just a bit confused with it all, any advice very much appreciated.

Hey mews, sorry to hear that, but as long as there as dome still viable there's still hope. It only takes one! When are you due ec? Not sure about your other qs sorry.
Lauren it's great to hear a story so similar. They all give me such hope! Just trying to balance it with onsetvative realism, I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed!!

Hi Fifs,
Egg collection will most likely be the end of this week, I’m going to guess it’ll be Friday. There were approx 8 follicles in the ‘right range’ and a further 3 that were too big, lots of small ones too. Nurse did say that at my 2nd scan (tomorrow) that they’d probably see more follicles so will have a better idea of numbers then. I am hoping for at least 7 eggs.

Hi mewsbabes - I was with gcrm. Ovitrelle for trigger and ovitrelle again post et instead of progesterone pesseries. I did ask the nurse about it and why I didn’t need additional progesterone and she said it was enough progesterone to get me through to implantation (if it was going to happen )- after that the body / pregnancy will be like any other natural pregnancy and produce enough natural progesterone so no need for any additional. They (in gcrm) see the protocol with ovitrellle as mimicking a natural pregnancy cycle and don’t see the need for pesseries once the body is producing progesterone itself .

The ovitrelle injection you take post et is only a small dose so technically it will be out of your system before otd - just be careful not to test too early .i tested 9dp2dt and got my positive - ovitrelle was our of my system by then (2 days before otd) xx
